This set back has finally made me drop his ranking a bit. I still had him up at #2 before today.

More importantly than any of that imo is that Tony is a stubborn guy, and will fight anywhere the fight goes.He did look like he followed a better gameplan vs Thomson though.Just a year ago Tony was gifted a decision (imo) against Danny Castillo when Tony decided to have a 3 round wrestling match with a guy that has a weak chin in a terrible display of fight IQ considering Tony's very heavy hands.Castillo took him down multiple times to zero and passed multiple times to 0 while Tony iirc initiated most of the grappling.His bad fight IQ has shown up in other fights too like when he had a striking match with Micheal Johnson who's losses have mostly (if not all) been because of wrestling,and got picked apart.
I think Khabib would take him down almost at will, and instead of looking to defend or get up I think Tony would be looking for subs that he wouldn't get,making the clock and gameplan his enemy.That's just how I see this fight and things I think of when analyzing it.Tony's super dangerous and of course could win that fight if it was to happen,I personally would not even think about picking him if Khabib didn't get injured.Tony vs Edson Barboza is an awesome fight too and stylistically much better for him considering Barboza's questionable chin.Khabib's injuries have been a giant disappointment, but man December is going to be nuts!

In the Assuncao fight though, most people feel Dillashaw won.
